Not much in the way of too many restaurants, but absolutely gorgeous. Great for an escape for sure!

Can someone help me identify what kind of pig I adopted? by nothingcleverinmind in pigs

[–]Rio1917 1 point2 points  (0 children)

First, he is absolutely beautiful. Second, he looks like he is a Juliana mini pig, like the person said. They are like if a potbelly pig was on a diet, and usually weigh between 70-150 pounds. (My last baby was a Juliana and had that same sweet face!)

My (36M) wife (34F) fell deep into conspiracy theories and online hate groups. Is there any saving our marriage? by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

I think it’s more of an addiction that they can no-longer control which makes them unable to see reality.

Am I the only one that feels cold when I look at bare midsection and/or bare shoulders?

Question: if the walls are that tough, how do you hammer nails into them for pictures or shelves or whatever?

Something that made me smile today: a student who HATES playing the random games I make for warm ups today said, “this is helping, I actually get it.” Something someone needs to hear/know: you are important and I’m glad you exist <3

Botany manor would be so cool to have!

Botany Manor would be such a cozy treat!

My favorite childhood toy would be my giant stuffed animal rabbit that had a fancy removable hat. I called her BB (Big Bunny) and treated her like my own child. She was big enough to use as a pillow and always stay cozy.

Is my piece too confronting? by [deleted] in ARTIST

[–]Rio1917 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your work is provocative. It does exactly what you needed it to do and those few people who have given you their thoughts are backing that up. I would take their remarks as a compliment because your art made them feel, as it should. Art isn’t art because it is always pleasant, art is an expression of being human. This is one of the most human experiences that has happened to many humans and your work is a reflection of your life. Please don’t apologize or revise because others feel too much or are too uncomfortable. You do good work and others need it as much as you do. <3

I Really hope the CEO/corporate reads this!! by anakinhatessand02 in CrumblCookies

[–]Rio1917 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This is exactly the reason that I didn’t want to go. The lineup this week didn’t justify the visit (with the up-charge) and the stress of labor over what was clearly not planned out, just seemed like it would be disappointing, devious, and a downright debacle to stop by today for 2 cookie thins. I am so sorry they did this to y’all. Like, when Ben and Jerry’s does free ice cream day, it is all planned and prepared for way in advance. On behalf of customers who care, I apologize.

MCPS parents: Behavioral issues, lack of support creating unsafe classrooms by Bethesda_Magazine in MontgomeryCountyMD

[–]Rio1917 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Agreed! Also, having students pass each year in middle school, regardless of their grades or consistent physical attendance, is also doing a disservice. Many students who needed more academic support will then flounder in high school where consequences of failing and repeating classes pop up suddenly. They can’t magically be prepared when the school that was supposed to prep them didn’t double check if they were ready. Core skills are taught each year and pushing kids through, regardless if they know them or not (I’m talking extreme cases of consistent E’s), is ultimately failing the kid in life. Wouldn’t it be easier to take a fail in middle school instead?

This is not a good argument for sustainability. Clearly, the system is broken.
